    They turn up on ebay too from time to time, just search for HO brass bridge

    I think I've settled on that too hunslet I'll cover the three tracks in concrete from the buffers to about 6 inches past the per-way sidings in front, then ballast the rest and run a road alongside the full length of the nearest of the three. It should look ok, and give me room to 'pose' container lifters for photos etc

    I'm quite sure they could be motorised!

    I'm just amazed he's done it all with 4 feet of headroom!!!!

    The more I see, the more I want to see Looks fantastic What did you use for the water? really captures it well!

    On the positive side, the bogies, underframe, pantograph and couplings look good. But for laser printed bodies, I'd expect to pay maybe 50-100 on top of the base cost of the donor?

    The model looks excellent but for 400 euro your buyers will expect glazing I think....

    Any photos of the finished item?

    Beat me to it northman ;( Still cry a little inside at the thought of the hammer coming down on that beauty!!!

    Me too I'm hoping I'll be able to run trains around the full loop by year end! (fingers crossed)!

    Sounds good and many thanks for the photos - that's -exactly- what I had hoped!!

    Cheers Rich - I used the Proses Spreader with some woodlands blend. Came out very well, only a little brushing and tidying needed before droppering in the glue... Will take a close up when it's dry!

    Here's a question for those more expert in the prototype! My rearmost three sidings (in the photo above) are freight sidings. Should I ballast them, hardstanding them / combination of both? My plan is to have a gantry road/rail crane over the closest siding, for transferring containers to trucks, etc, as well as some container lifter vehicles, but the sidings will also be used to house cement, timber, tara mines wagons, etc.... Any ideas? (I guess I'm trying to be lazy about 9.5 feet x 3 )

    I'm waiting for a box of 3mm cube magnets to land from china and testing with the kadee couplers before I can ballast any siding I'll need uncoupling on.... this was mainly just to experiment with the ballast spreader, and see how it came out!

    Tiny update today/... Did a clean up, founds some stock, lost some stock, and resolved to order a skip to clear the rest of the attic Also, had little play with the first siding to be ballasted (photo with the glue wet!)
  19. BosKonay
    Yep but was curious why there were three!
  20. BosKonay
    What's the craic with the little dip switches?
  21. BosKonay
    Beautiful!!! And great storage! You'll need another level for the freight stock
  22. BosKonay
    Looking really great and very neat baseboards!!! Is that hanging basket liner for the foliage base layer? The rust on the rails looks well - how did you paint it?
  23. BosKonay
    Lol. Did you have to buy it in batches? Are you droppering regularly?
  24. BosKonay
    Sounds like a great plan ) and your attic layout sounds very similar to mine! ) Have you any rough track plans yet? A dog bone / loop could give you a good running loop, then run yards or stations along the line or off branches..

    And a new source of Irish stuff on ebay? http://cgi.ebay.ie/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280976999960&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:IE:1123
